melchizedek our priest

There was a King and a Priest in Salem the city of peace, which became the city of David. The name of this King and priest was Melchisedec. lt is clearly stated in scriptures that this King did not have beginning of days or ending of Life, he had no Father or Mother and was without descent and was known as the king of righteousness.
There is only one King who has no beginning and has no end and He is God Almighty the creator of the universe, Elohim the self-sufficient one. Oh how sweet it is to know that the God we serve has no beginning and has no ending of days for He is the Ancient of Days, the Alpha and the Omega and that he is the King of Salem: The king of peace. Because he is the king of peace he gives us peace which passeth all understanding, the peace which when in you will be like the rivers of waters never going dry. There was the need for a priest unto God in Jerusalem but God did not get any one who was qualified: Sinless and worthy, so God occupied the position Himself.
Melchizedek, also spelled Melchisedech, in the Old Testament, a figure of importance in biblical tradition because he was both king and priest, was connected with Jerusalem, and was revered by Abraham, who paid a tithe to him. He appears as a person only in an interpolated vignette of the story of Abraham rescuing his kidnapped nephew, Lot, by defeating a coalition of Mesopotamian kings under Chedorlaomer.
Melchizedek commands a disproportionate amount of importance in redemptive history compared to the amount of space devoted to him in Scripture. His name literally means “king of righteousness,” and he rules over the city of Salem.
